Recital is a dynamic programming language with an integrated high performance database particularly well suited for the development and deployment of high transaction throughput applications. Recital 10 further enhances Recital with extensive features and functionality to facilitate its use in fault tolerant high availability systems. Much of the development of Recital 10 was concentrated on performance optimizations and cluster aware functionality to provide an application platform that can be scaled as needed without any application changes.
Key features of Recital 10 include:
- Cluster aware database engine that works transparently with drbd, heartbeat, glusterfs and samba
- High degree of fault tolerance with self healing indexes
- Massive performance improvements
- Extensive internals overall and modernization with superior object-oriented capabilities
- Chronological data versioning with database timelines
- SmartQuery caching
- Database Administration Tools
- Code and Data Profiling
- Better integration with unix/linux command shell
- Incorporates a range of new built-in functions compatible with those in the PHP core libraries
- Built-in support for outputting data in HTML, XML, and JSON format
- Seamless SQL command integration into the Recital scripting language
- Much improved Microsoft FoxPRO language compatibility
- Numerous extensions and improvements (see below for details)
- Very large file support (2^63)
Here's how to set up field validation for a field with a small static number of acceptable values.
Using the example.dbf table from the southwind sample database, validation can be added to the title field to ensure it matches one of a list values.
open database southwindThe inlist() function checks whether the specified expression exists in the comma-separated list which follows. An attempt to update title with a value not in the list will give an error: Validation on field 'TITLE' failed.
alter table example add constraint;
(title set check inlist(alltrim(title),"Miss","Mr","Mrs","Ms"))
If you have access to the Recital Workbench, you can use the modify structure worksurface to add and alter your dictionary entries, including a customized error message if required.
The Compatibility Dialog settings are written to the compat.db file in <path>/conf - please ensure that the user setting the compatibility settings has write access to this file and directory. Once these settings are written, the dialog will not be displayed unless SET COMPATIBLE is issued.
For systems that do not have the xterm libraries installed, please install these to use xterm, or set the DB_TERM environment variable to start Recital from a terminal:
DB_TERM=gnome-terminal; export DB_TERM
This setting can be added to the /opt/recital/conf/recital.conf (text) file to make it available system-wide.
Please note that the Recital ODBC Driver for Linux requires a 32 bit ODBC Driver Manager.

Here is a simple shell script to copy your ssh authorization key to a remote machine so that you can run ssh and scp without having to repeatedly login.
#!/bin/sh
# save in file ssh_copykeyto.sh then chmod +x ssh_copykeyto.sh
KEY="$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
if [ ! -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ];then
echo "private key not found at $KEY"
echo "create it with "ssh-keygen -t rsa" before running this script
exit
fi
if [ -z $1 ];then
echo "Bad args: specify user@host as the first argument to this script"
exit
fi
echo "Copying ssh authorization key to $1... "
KEYCODE=`cat $KEY`
ssh -q $1 "mkdir ~/.ssh 2>/dev/null; chmod 700 ~/.ssh; echo "$KEYCODE" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys; \ chmod 644 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
echo "done!"
